Hohtälli, Mountain summit in Valais, Switzerland

Hohtälli is a summit of the Swiss Pennine Alps in Valais, on the ridge between the Gornergrat and the Stockhorn, 5 km southeast of Zermatt. It rises to 3,275 metres between the Findel Glacier and the Gorner Glacier, and a cable car station stands on the summit. Several ski runs descend the mountain, with cable car connections to Gant and a short cable car to Rote Nase.

The summit was served by four cable cars: from the Gornergrat, from Gant, from the Rote Nase over a height difference of only 40 metres, and toward the Stockhorn. The lines from the Gornergrat and to the Stockhorn were closed at the end of April 2007. A groomed connecting piste to the Gifthüttli run replaced them, and a T-bar lift from Triftji, in service since winter 2007/2008, replaced the Stockhorn cable car.

The location serves as a hub where skiers and hikers transition between different routes across the Zermatt region. The infrastructure allows visitors to access multiple valleys and glaciers from this central vantage point.

Access is easiest by cable car from the valley below, with the ride taking just a few minutes to reach the summit. In summer, hikers can explore the surroundings on well-maintained trails, while the area shifts to winter sports focus during colder months.

The cable car from Hohtälli to Rote Nase covers only about 40 metres of height difference, one of the shortest lifts in the Zermatt ski area. The lines from the Gornergrat and toward the Stockhorn were closed at the end of April 2007.
